A South Korean court has ordered the release of impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol from jail, allowing him to stand trial for rebellion charges without physical detention. The decision comes after Yoon's lawyers argued that the investigative agency lacked legal authority to probe rebellion charges. The Constitutional Court is expected to rule soon on whether to formally remove Yoon from office or reinstate him, which could lead to a national election to choose his successor. This event took place on 03/07/2025 at the following location: Seoul, South Korea.
